I'm not sure how we got to October already, but September seemed to have it out for me, so I'm glad it's over. Also, at some point soon, it'll stop being 90+ degrees here in Florida, something I'm looking forward to.
Â
Last week, my husband and I took a last-minute road trip. We spent a total of 34 hours in the car, with very little scenery to look at. Thank goodness for podcasts!
Â
We listened to 32 podcast episodes, which included binging two series. I thought you might be interested in checking out what we listened to, so instead of recommending podcasts at the end of this email, I made a list of all the episodes!
Â
I used Podchaser to make the list. I don't really use that platform much. I did join early when it launched a couple of years ago, but between my favorite podcast app - PocketCasts - and ads from shows I listen to, I don't have much reason to search for podcasts on any other platform.
Â
Â
Still, making this list via Podchaser is MUCH easier than listing 32 podcast episodes in this email! (Actually, the list only has 31 shows; I wasn't able to find one of the Spanish podcasts we listened to.)
Â
I hope you'll find something new to listen to on this list! A tip: my fave show on this list is This Land. My husband and I both loved it, and I'll be writing about it on the blog
ASAP.

7 Creepy Paranormal Podcasts That'll Keep You Up At Night

With October comes Halloween, which really equals an entire month of creepy stuff. Hence my latest post about creepy, paranormal podcasts.
Â
Because I'm not big into spooky stuff myself, I got some help from the team behind Ghostly Podcast. Their show is a fun, clean take on popular ghost stories and haunted stuff, so they really know their stuff when it comes to creeping you out!

6 Entrepreneurial Mindset Podcasts for Women
Â
I wrote a guest post over on my friend Alyssa's blog, The Life Hunt. Alyssa paid off $30K of undergrad student loans in two years by working hard and starting a couple of online businesses. Now, she's a grad student with
still more jobs, and she wants to inspire and motivate others to achieve financial freedom.
Â
The podcasts I recommend in this post are all about entrepreneurial mindset; because mindset is huge when it comes to starting - and running - a successful business.

Â
A reminder to read this post and TAKE ACTION! The post includes the most important podcast settings you need to pay attention to in your app/player, and tutorials for how to adjust those settings in 3 popular podcast apps.
Â
#TrueStory After writing this post and adjusting my husband's Apple Podcasts settings, I learned that he was streaming podcasts using an additional app. I'm still not 100% sure if I've got it all sorted out; my anxiety over this is high.

1. Lemonada Media launched a new weekly series, Last Day, about the opioid crisis, the last day of a person's life, and how they got there. (If that sounds too heavy for you, check out this recent episode of Terrible, Thanks for Asking, which shines some light on the host & topic.)
